The leaflet and poster explain what is computed tomography (CT), describe its meaning, the risks and benefits of CT scan in children, and indicate examples of questions that parents or caregivers can ask the referring physician or personnel of a diagnostic imaging department to obtain important information about their child’s CT scan.
The originals entitled “Computed tomography in children. What do we need to know?” were published by WHO, translated by the National Centre for Radiation Protection in Health Care.
